1. Hard Skills vs. Soft Skills: In your own words, please explain--what is the difference between hard and soft skills? What are common hard skills required to work in the field of your interest? What are common soft skills within the field of your interest? How do these commonly requested skills of this career "fit" your personality, talents and skills?

2. Growth Mindset: Now is the time to be honing these skills as school is a safe place to practice both hard and soft skills to build confidence in the areas we choose to strengthen. In On Course, there are four ways to develop a growth mindset listed under the Chapter 7 heading of "How to Develop a Growth Mindset." Describe how you will apply one of those ways of developing a growth mindset at work OR school to address a hard or soft skill you feel you need now and/or will need in the future. 3. Skills Application: How might meeting with a career coach help you (a practice of interdependence) serve as a resource for you? Hint: visit the Ivy+ Career Link page. For example, might they be able to address gaps in your skills and help you find ways to address these? Or, help you with your resume and cover letter to highlight the skills you have in connection to your career field? Review the "Lifelong Learning at Work" section in chapter 7 of On Course to identify areas of resume preparation. Part 3 - Career Goal and Timeline Write a career goal that includes all five parts of the DAPPS rule, explained in Chapter 3 of On Course. (If you haven't decided on a career yet, write a DAPPS goal about how you will make that decision.) . My long-term Career (school) DAPPS goal: Once you have your long-term career goal, identify the next 5 steps needed to get there. Break this long-term goal down into short-term goals (can be accomplished in weeks to months) to create a career planning timeline. Think of this as a "to do" list of career-related items you can be completing now for your future career. Include the future dates (not past ones) that these five short term goals will be accomplished by and how you plan to achieve this.
